The Month of Zen has been amazing. So great to look back at the old styles, correspondents and the issues of the day. I remember so many of these shows. It's like opening a time capsule I made for myself but hosted by Jon Stewart.

The next phase of Jon Stewart’s career will take him to HBO where he’s signed a production contract for four years, the cable channel announced Tuesday.

Stewart’s first project will be the creation of “short-form digital content” in which he riffs on “current events through his unique prism,” HBO said.

The short videos will appear on HBO Now, the channel’s streaming service. It’s unclear how much material Stewart will turn out, but his content will be “refreshed” multiple times a day, according to HBO’s statement.

“Appearing on television 22 minutes a night clearly broke me,” Stewart said in a statement. “I’m pretty sure I can produce a few minutes of content every now and again.”
